I am currently cleaning, clearing and re-organizing my office/design/sewing space, because I'm expecting a group of customers in my home. This is a first for me and I am excited! That is the reason I haven't been listing much in my online shop, seeing as I can always add the bags that don't sell later. I have been busy attending to practical matters, like attaching price tags to my collection, making sure I have enough business cards etc. I don't know what the customers are expecting - something along the line of a tupperware party perhaps, except it will be bags: a Dunibagz party :)
I have thought a lot about the organizational aspect of this mini-event, and have decided that after greeting the customers in my office - which is where they will see how my product is developed - and hopefully admire my professionalism :), I will then take them through to our living and dining area, which is quite spacious, and therefore ideal for people to browse my bag selection, which I will display on the dining room table. I am aiming for a relaxed yet professional atmosphere. I will offer hot and cold beverages along with biscuits, but nothing chocolate-y for obvious reasons. And this is where it gets tricky. Naturally, nobody wants to get cookie crumbs all over the products, but I can't exactly expect them to look but not touch...
So, I'm just going to hope for the best, and this goes for the sales too!
